Doesn't Carville remind you of the creature in "Lord of the
Rings?"

[areafiftyone]

LOL YES MAAAAAAAASTER!! IT'S THE PRECIOUS!!!

[massgopguy]

6) Anyone who read the Senate Intelligence Committee Report on Niger.

[headstamp]

Let me get this straight. According to lefty pundits, Fitzgerald has the White House worried and Karl Rove is in his cross hairs but the White House is using Fitzgerald to go after the New York Times and other journalists.

Which story is it this week, Jimmy boy?

[EQAndyBuzz]

"Carville said there was "heavy, heavy speculation out there" that Miller was being used by the White House to "disseminate this""

Miller is keeping her mouth shut because she figured out who Valerie Plame is from Who's Who and it would implicate Wilson.

[popdonnelly]

So typical of Carville to trash a woman who's stuck in jail. What a gentleman. And he only lies when his mouth is moving.

[Lancey Howard]

To be honest I think this whole thing was mastermined by Wilson to bring down Bush but it backfired BIG TIME!

I believe that it was Plame and others at State and the CIA who masterminded this pre-election Bush-smearing campaign. Wilson doesn't seem to me to have the.... creativity.... to mastermind much of anything. I think Plame plays him like a fiddle.

While Democrat Plame was supporting the Kerry campaign, here is what Wilson was writing in the LA Times in October of 2002:

"You could argue—and some liberals have—that deterrence alone could work again now, and that neither war nor tough inspections are needed. But effective deterrence requires that world leaders issue ultimatums backed by the credible threat of force, which they have not been willing to do so far."

[StAnDeliver]

Just exactly how did Wilson and Plame get into Marquis' "Who's Who"? Self-submission? When? How much detail was submitted in the form (vs. what actually goes into the book)?

Fitzgerald should have Marquis produce their submission form.

[eddie willers]

I vote for:

5. Some relatively unknown State or CIA official who was in cahoots with Plame.

[nopardons]

What's in Who's Who, is what is submitted on the reply form, written by the person it is sent to. If you look up Wilson. what's in the book, is what he supplied them.

[prairiebreeze]

Imus gave Carville cover? Surprise, surprise...not.

[kcvl]

"And there's a lot of people at the Times - and I know this to be a fact - who believe that," he insisted.

Did Dee Dee Myer's husband, Todd Purdham tell you, Carville? Or was it one of the other plants/informants at the NYT from the Clinton years that told you?

[msnimje]

There is no way James Carville Knows what Fitzgerald is thinking. He is just sipping some Cajun Brew and speculating about what he hopes happens.

[stockpirate]

I hear yeah, but I think she is protecting a high up Democrat, like maybe Hitlery.

[jjmcgo]

If Judith Miller is incarcerated for contempt and the Times in paying her while she remains in contempt, isn't the paper aiding and abetting her criminal conduct?

[XHogPilot]

Miller and Carville are both a couple of MSM pawns.

Pawn is hardly the word for either. They are instigators, not pawns.

[nightowl]

I will repeat here ONE MORE TIME what I have been posting for weeks. Lewis "Scooter" Libby (VP Cheneys chief of staff) is going to be revealed as Novak's first source about Plame. Novak described his source as "no partisan gunslinger", which describes Libby perfectly. In fact, he is married to a Democrat.

It has been reported in the press that Libby testified to the grand jury that he was told the information about Wilson's trip and Plame's part in it by a "journalist". He also told them the name of this journalist, but nobody knows who he said.

Fitzgerald KNOWS it is Judy Miller because HE TOLD THE JUDGE SO IN COURT. He was quoted as saying "I don't know why she (Miller) won't testify, WE KNOW WHO HER SOURCE IS." Libby has released "all persons" from confidentiality in the case that he talked to about the case. Therefore, Judy Miller sits in jail tonight.

This is a Fifth Amendment case as far as Judy Miller is concerned. I bet you anything that the name, Valerie Plame, came first from the lips of Judy Miller to Scooter Libby, who repeated it to Novak when Novak asked him why the CIA would send an anti-war liberal Democrat to Niger.

I have a feeling this case is about A LOT more than a "leak" case of a so-called "undercover" agents name, who just happens to drive out to CIA Headquarter in Langley, Va. everyday. I can't imagine a prosecutor spending two years on a case like this. We know he has given "secret evidence" to the judge and this "secret evidence" has withstood an appeals court challenge as well. Howard Kurtz (WPOST) wrote 3-4 weeks ago in a piece that two Appeals Court judges (of difference stripes) said there were serious national security issues involved.

I think Wilson, his "spy" wife, her CIA colleagues, who were leaking like s sieve before the election to try and defeat GWB, and Judy Miller should be concerned.

[StAnDeliver]

"What's in Who's Who, is what is submitted on the reply form, written by the person it is sent to. If you look up Wilson. what's in the book, is what he supplied them."

So the timeline on that, presuming Novak was consulting '04 Who's Who, would have to be Wilson submitting a form that identified his wife as "Valerie Plame" no later than mid-year '03. End of story.

The Times was the first to mention WW vis a vis Novak and give him an out. Why? Because Judy is tired of rotting in jail (it ain't the Hamptons). So I expect they're going to prevent Miller from having to expose her connex to Plame (sans Rove) by thumping this story.

[Political Junkie Too]

And so it begins, huh? I think it has finally dawned on some of the Democrats that this isn't going to turn out the way they originally planned or desired.

I'll believe that when they start complaining about $40 million and four years... :-)
